none of this is true - lisa jewell (a review)
keywords: podcast, marriage fallout, murders
cerita tentang dua orang wanita 45 tahun yang punya kepribadian sangat berlawanan, dengan masalah pernikahan masing-masing.
but one of them, josie, is convinced that no one gets her except alix. so josie became obsessed with alix and her ‘perfect’ family.
jujur udah lama banget aku gak ngerasain sensasi baca buku thriller yang bikin aku gak pengin berenti baca. sebenernya sebelum mulai ini, keyword yang aku cari adalah ‘rekomendasi audiobook’ dan beberapa sumber yang aku dapet nyebutin kalau buku ini dibacain dengan cast lengkap dalam format podcast, jadi sangat menarik untuk didengar. otomatis aku keinget sadie and i remember enjoying the audiobook back when i just started listening to them.
akhirnya aku pinjem buku & audiobooknya lewat perpus digital. biasanya, aku selalu mulai audiobook sambil baca bukunya untuk nyesuain pace dan artikulasi narrator. tapi ujung-ujungnya malah keterusan baca dan mengabaikan audiobooknya.
selama baca ini aku geregetan sama alix si people pleaser dan josie yang gak tau diri. josie adalah definisi cegil yang sesungguhnya. meski judulnya ‘none of this is true’, sampai akhir aku dibikin bingung; if none of that is true, then what’s the truth?
buku ini cocok dibaca sama pembaca yang lagi ada di tengah-tengah reading slump karena bukunya gak terlalu tebel, chapternya pendek-pendek, fast-paced, dan page turner, bonus audiobooknya juga bagus (kata orang-orang).
4.5 stars from me, took the 0.5 out because of the ending.

Glow-up tips that actually work from your favourite beauty girly (me)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hot girls don't gatekeep, so here are some of my favourite glow-up tips that actually work. <3
Skin
Find a skincare routine that works for you!! It took me years to find mine, but now my skin is literally perfect. <3 (let me know if you guys want a detailed skincare routine!!)
Don't pick your skin, the less you touch your face, the better.
I believe ice rollers are bs…
If you struggle with dark circles, don't try fixing them through skincare. Most likely, the problem comes from your diet or stress.
Dry brushing is a game-changer!!
Use lotion after every shower and apply a body spray before the lotion is fully absorbed into your skin. You'll smell amazing for DAYS.
Don't try homemade skincare if you already struggle with your skin. I learned it the hard way, lol…
WASH YOUR MAKEUP BRUSHES
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hair
The more heat you use, the more damage you'll have.
SILK PILLOWCASES
Never sleep with wet or damp hair.
Stop buying cheap shampoo and conditioner, also make sure to check the ingredients!!
Some ingredients to avoid: Sulfates, Parabens, Polyethene Glycols, Triclosan, Formaldehyde, Synthetic Fragrances and Colors, Dimethicone, Retinyl Palmitate.
I trim my hair every 3 months.
If you have damaged hair, invest in some Olaplex!! my favourites are N4c, N6 and N7. <3
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Diet
green juice actually makes you feel better. I make mine at home and LOVE it :)
Balance is key!! I swear by the 80/20 rule.
Drink more water, even if you think you're drinking enough. DRINK MORE
Keto is BS <3
Focus on eating more protein. Usually, low-fat products have more protein, so I just try to buy those, lol.
I eat gluten-free, not by choice… But it did clear my acne, so…
Take supplements, get a blood test done, discuss it with a doctor and start taking whatever they recommend. GAME CHANGER.
EAT MORE VEGETABLES and fruits.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lifestyle
Focus on being more active, walk more, workout, join a club or sport, dance, whatever works for you!!
I aim for 10K steps, I live in a big city, so I usually walk more than that but still.
Hobbies that don't include screen time. Trust me.
Find your personal style and ALWAYS dress up. <3
TREAT YOURSELF. Buy yourself flowers, and presents, go to your favourite restaurants, vacations!!
Read more. As a classics lover, I can't imagine a life without literature, but even if you don't like classics, any book is better than no book!!
Take more pictures. I've noticed that I have become a lot more present since I've started taking more pictures!! highly recommend :)
I hate to say this, but getting up earlier is lowkey kinda great... been doing it for a few weeks, and unfortunately, I do feel better... they were right...
Get a cat. :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mindset
Stop assuming that everyone hates you, they don't, trust me.
Journaling, manifesting, law of attraction, affirmations.
one of my favourite affirmations: "if I weren't capable, the opportunity wouldn't have come my way; I belong here." <3
Stop hanging out with people who drain your energy
stop consuming media that makes you feel bad.
What would the highest version of yourself do?
If you change your mindset, you will change your life.
Romanticise every aspect of your life. <3
As always, please feel free to share your own suggestions and glow-up tips in the comments! <3
✩‧₊*:・love ya ・:*₊‧✩

babak belur.
she’s stripping me down and expose me for the world to see.
she must’ve snuck into my bedroom and read my college diary, writing about this one guy whom i had a crush with and it was honestly so embarrassing.
i was so so SO stupid how i was so attached to ONE encounter. i wore my favorite blouse every thursday because that’s when we usually pass each other on the main hallway, swept my gaze through every inch of our college building trying to find him because somehow it could give me strength for the day or peeked through the window of his class just to get a glimpse of him.
i was truly a deranged weirdo.

hello again, you.
you came to my dreams frequently, it makes me wonder how, because we don’t have much history to share. maybe it’s your existence, not our history, which holds the power over my subconscious. nights with you is my favorite.
i’ve never been able to explain my feelings for you properly after the letter. i let you go that night, truly i did. but one day you ruined my resolution, now i don’t know anymore.
there are some days which i badly want to text you again, see how you’re doing. i’ve always wish for your happiness; then, now, and years to come.
i hope someday, we have the opportunity to set things right, talk this through, and get the closure we deserve.

๑ soft

yeonjun x gn!reader; fluff, est. relationship, sleepy sleepy jjun
guys i swear i’m working on the part 2 for that tyun fic i just felt fluffy and yj is on my mind so

Everything about him, you’ve noticed, is soft.
The feeling of his hand in yours, his voice as he tells you about the good and bad parts of his day, his hair which tickles your neck as he rests his head on your shoulder. But most importantly (in your opinion), the look in his eyes as he does all that.
A fine layer of gloss coats them, and his eyes shine prettily as he seems to get drowsier, closing them slowly.
You can tell Yeonjun’s trying to stay awake, as he has been for the past while. He continues to babble slowly about the events of his day even though he’s already snoring gently as he does.
He fights to keep his eyes open, trying almost too hard as he seemingly forgets what he’d been talking about, turning his head to meet your eyes with his same soft gaze.
His lips are pouting slightly as he asks you, “What was I saying?”
You smile, taking his hand and delicately pushing his head onto a pillow, watching his eyes close on reflex.
“Let’s not worry about that, hm? Just rest Jjunie, there’s plenty of time to tell me in the morning.” You can already hear more snores leaving his lips, and chuckle sweetly when he nods.
His hand holding yours pulls you down so that you’re laying with him, and he wraps an arm around your waist, tugging you even closer.
His head rests on your chest, focusing on the way it rises up and down with every breath and on the soft beating of your heart.
Though it’s hard finding the energy to open his mouth, he does, mumbling a sweet, “Love you.”
You can’t help but smile and realise that you too, can be soft.
With your hand reaching up to play with his hair, you mutter back, “Love you more.”

are u ever sick w longing. and i don't just mean romantic longing. i mean longing for a place you barely get to see, longing for friends you no longer have, longing for feelings you might have left behind in your childhood, longing for creativity, longing for a rich and more expansive life, longing for less inhibition. longing for more passion. longing for ur life to be so incandescent w something it thaws all the frost in ur bones. are u ever so consumed w it it rends ur heart in two. do u understand me
